Lecrae - The Bride lyrics

[Lecrae - The Bride lyrics]

A building of beings being constructed
Christ is the cornerstone
Foundation build on another and
You's a goner holmes
She' built on em, supported by
Him, conformed to him
Now she's a body of bodies
Who transform through him
A temple that breathes we are the halls
We are the floor board or
More we are the walls
Manifold wisdom of God no longer a mystery
The church is the pinnacle
Of our salvific history
One flesh union homie
The Tri-union is glorified through
Our corporatized communion
Still the present reality is she was born
A casualty though she's made alive
She's affected by depravity
Once lived in sin and enslaved


By her lust and folks catch her slippin and
They turn away disgusted
She's a work in progress Christ
Is the head of her
And He wash her clean with the words
That he done said to her
She's already pretty but she's really
Not dressed and sometimes
She look silly but she's far from a mess
Yes, please so don't be dissin cause
Jesus done paid grip an
And if you didn't then should caller her
Misses i'm talking bout the church

Yeah she may look gritty
When her man come back she gone look
So pretty - She the Church
You might see her acting crazy
Be patient with her tho cause she still
God's baby - She the Church
Before you dis her get to know her
Jesus got a thing fo her and died just
To show her - She the Church
She ain't bricks and buildings
She all of God's people
Men women and children

Her name is ecclesia meaning the the assembly
Bows to (the Trinity) No other Divinity
A body family and community she is all one
But on earth you see her
In congregational small ones
A microcosm or a small scale example
But yes it is the church even
Though it's just a sample
Invisible spiritual physical visible
Not a brick temple never that simple
This a not a building she is not bricks
She's a world changer but
Ain't bout getting rich
Perpetrating fakes cause a lot
Of folks to hate
Plus her hands get dirty and
Her feet get scraped
And sometimes her body parts
Start acting outa place legs tryna be arms
Arms thinking they the face
But she'll never be replaced with
A one man band
Or a small Taliban with no body in command

Yeah she may look gritty
When her man come back she gone look
So pretty - She the Church
You might see her acting crazy
Be patient with her tho cause she still
God's baby - She the Church
Before you dis her get to know her
Jesus got a thing fo her and died just
To show her - She the Church
She ain't bricks and buildings
She all of God's people
Men women and children

Some don't get it so they hate
They say she's on a paper chase
They say she's really fake
So they go start a ministry so
They can do the work
But they don't understand how Jesus
Feel about His church
And yeah they make disciples
They got plenty conversions
They take care of the widows and
The orphans they be workin
But none of them are churchin
No church structure
No elders and no discipline
They don't have a conductor
And they so they don't submit
But quite a few of them baptize
People how I pray that you'd look
At this thing from God's eyes
Take responsibility inside the whole
Council not just the
Area where you might have a mouthful
Who should folks submit to
Who will conduct the discipline
If excommunicated what body will
They be missing then
Look at Ephesians 4 where Paul gets practical
1st Timothy and Titus if
You thinking I'm irrational
Homie that's the church

Yeah she may look gritty
When her man come back she gone look
So pretty - She the Church
You might see her acting crazy
Be patient with her tho cause she still
God's baby - She the Church
Before you dis her get to know her
Jesus got a thing fo her and died just
To show her - She the Church
She ain't bricks and buildings
She all of God's people
Men women and children
